    Raised in Portland but now residing in New York, Keegan Dewitt has also studied acting and written a play. He brings the more positive aspects of his dramatic experiences to his songs. His debut is a treasure of well-constructed, relatively mellow Americana. Songs such as Bed Of Mercy and So High So Low are radio-friendly roots-rock in the vein of Ryan Adams, but not nearly as surly or emotionally potent. Indeed, Dewitt comes across like Adams friendly little brother, the kid who learned the hard lessons while at acting school. I wish I knew some more about you but I dont, Dewitt sings on More Of You, and the same sentiments could be applied to him. Pretty and polite, the songs dont dig much deeper than the surface, happy to examine the expected emotions in the most listener-friendly ways.
